Chyron intros ‘triple threat’ HyperXLP graphics platform

Chyron’s HyperXLP, a dual-channel-capable broadcast graphics platform that the company believes sets a new standard for performance in a compact 1-RU design, is now available. Designed for live news, sports, and OB productions, HyperXLP occupies just a quarter of the space of a standard HyperX system and consumes half as much power.

“The HyperXLP is a triple threat: blazingly fast, environmentally friendly, and ready for the demands of mobile production,” says Bill Hendler, chief technology officer at Chyron. “With features including a high-speed multi-core processor, solid-state storage, and native stereoscopic 3D graphics capability, the system offers performance worthy of even the most advanced live news and sports broadcasts.”

HyperXLP leverages Chyron’s Lyric PRO graphics creation and playback software and, deployed with an optional second channel, the company says HyperXLP can meet virtually any broadcast graphic demand.

The system’s graphics engine — built on the latest Intel multi-core processor — simultaneously manipulates 3D graphics faster than previous Chyron systems. It also allows stereoscopic 3D graphics to be built easily from existing scenes without any modification. In addition, HyperXLP offers quick manual updates, as well as a powerful set of update tools including ODBC connections, Adobe XMP metadata, and the industry-standard Chyron Intelligent Interface.

Compatible with a broad range of graphic content, HyperXLP integrates easily into existing workflows. The turnkey solution also serves as a key element in Chyron’s BlueNet workflow and Axis World Graphics order management system, which combines the world’s most advanced graphics creation, collaboration, management, and playout systems to minimise the cycle time from creation to air while ensuring the highest production value.
